Carry Me Home |
This hotel is cheap |
And the pillows stink |
And there’s not a single thing |
To say it’s Christmas Eve |
Oh Saint Nicholas |
I know I ain’t in your list |
But if you’re listening |
I need a bus ticket |
I came through Montreal |
I lost a lot of dough |
Could find no honest job |
So I did some other ones |
Got into trouble and |
I had to run or suffer |
And then a long road |
Into a long December |
Over the water and |
Over the border and |
Over the open land |
To this Ramada Inn |
No overbooking here |
No sort of holy birth |
No miracles occurring |
No not a creature stirring |
Oh Saint Stephen |
Where is your feast when I |
When I so sorely need it |
When I haven’t hardly eaten |
But I’d give my food and drink |
To see my home again |
To see my mother’s hand |
Against her apron edge |
Oh |
Oh |
Oh (x2) |
Oh Saint Christopher |
Send me a Christian word |
Send me a southern wind |
Oh send me up to my kin |
Hear the boys singing |
Through their drunken grinning |
Of Jesus, Joseph, Mary |
I hear their voices carry |
Carry me home |
Home |
Home (x2) |
Can any saints hear me? |
Is there any angel near me? |
If you won’t lift me up |
Then would you send my love |
Back to my home |
Back to my only shelter |
Where in the awful weather |
I will be warm and welcome |
Back to my home |
Home |
Home… |
